EA promotes Maxis' Lucy Bradshaw to SVP

Form 3 filing reveals new title for executive

Lucy Bradshaw, previously general manager of Maxis at EA, has been promoted to a senior vice president at the corporation. She will retain her responsibilities at the Sims studio whilst moving up the corporate chain.

Part of the recent executive shake up at the company, which has included the promotion of Sports head Andrew Wilson to CEO and DICE boss Patrick Soderlund to Sports head, the move sees Bradshaw reporting directly to Wilson.

I'm kinda curious about that. How much responsibility does she hold for the whole "online only" debacle with Sim City? If it's anything more than "she was vaguely briefed on it," this is probably not a good sign for EA.
